Vladislav Bezborodov, Yevgeniy Turbin, and Artyom Lyubimov will not officiate in the 2025/2026 RPL season. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
Additionally, it is highly likely that fans will not see Aleksey Amelin either. According to "Sport-Express," many assistant referees have also been removed from the list of referees approved for the season. Bezborodov became known in 2024 for boasting about himself on social media.
After an investigation, the Russian Football Union disqualified him until the end of the season. The reasons for Turbin, Lyubimov, and Amelin's absence from the season have not been disclosed. These changes indicate significant updates in the refereeing system of the RPL and may have important implications for the quality of the football game.
Referee-related issues are in the public eye, so additional information may be provided in the future. Football fans and experts will continue to monitor the situation closely.
